When I shut off the wipers on my '73 in mid-swipe, they go all the way to the bottom of their travel, then go part-way back up and stop in a position that is too high. If I time it just right, I can get them to stop at the bottom where I want.
I've been reading lots of threads on the wiper system and I think that since they stop in a consistent place, it means that they are parking correctly and I just need to reposition the arm. Before I go through pulling the tank, etc I want to make sure I'm not missing something. After reading about the electrical part of the parking system, I'm hoping that I don't have to mess with it. I don't think I can just reposition the wiper arms on their shafts (it's been awhile since I checked that & I don't remember why). Thanks for your advice. |
